Participants of STAND & SERVE, in partnership with the
Arizona Governor's Office, the Arizona Department of Economic
Security and METRO light rail, are working on a project called
the STAND & SERVE Central Corridor Initiative (SSCCI). This
is a youth-led and youth-facilitated coalition of organizations,
schools, students, families and community members committed
to cultivating a safe, healthy and respectful community. The
goals of the Initiative are to mobilize the communities along
the metro light rail to develop and adopt strategies that
cultivate positive social norms while preventing the onset
of substance abuse, suicide, depression, oppression, child
abuse, sexual, family, dating, school gang and gun violence,
homelessness, vandalism, criminality and the subsequent negative
effects.
The coalition meets monthly at the Phoenix Library from 4-5
in Meeting Room A Floor 1. Everyone is welcome. Download
the overview for meeting dates and times in 2009.
